Item 4. Description Of Securities.
Not applicable. The Common Stock is registered under Section 12 of the

Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification Of Directors And Officers.
The Registrant is a Delaware corporation, subject to the applicable
indemnification provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware (the "DGCL"). Section 145 of the DGCL provides for the
indemnification, under certain circumstances, of any person in connection with
any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative (other than derivative actions), brought or threatened involving
such person because of such person's service as a director, officer, employee or
agent of the corporation or such person's service in any such capacity with
respect to another corporation or other entity at the request of such
corporation.
The Registrant's Amended and Restated By-laws provide for the
indemnification of the officers and directors of the registrant to the fullest
extent permitted by the DGCL. Article XII of the Registrant's Amended and
Restated By-laws provides that each person who was or is made a party to (or is
threatened to be made a party to) any civil or criminal action, suit or
proceeding by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or
officer of the Registrant shall be indemnified and held harmless by the
Registrant to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL against all expense,
liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees) incurred by
such person in connection therewith, if such persons acted in good faith and in
a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the Registrant and had no reason to believe that his conduct was
illegal.
Article XII of the Registrant's Restated Certificate of Incorporation
provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, the Registrant's
directors will not be personally liable to the Registrant or its stockholders
for monetary damages resulting from a breach of the fiduciary duty as directors.
However, nothing contained in such Article XII shall eliminate or limit the
liability of directors (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to
the Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or
which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of
-3-
<PAGE>
the law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL or (iv) for any transaction from
which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
The Registrant maintains directors and officers liability insurance, which
covers directors and officers of the Registrant against certain claims or
liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties.

Item 9. Undertakings.
(a) The Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
-4-
<PAGE>
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act");
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-
effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent
a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement;
and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan
of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any
material change to such information in the Registration Statement.
Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
- -----------------
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the
Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act, that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.
(b) The Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual
report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is
incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than for the payment by the Registrant of
expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the
securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court
of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it
is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed
by the final adjudication of such issue.

Gentlemen:
This firm has acted as counsel to U.S. Foodservice (the "Company"), a
Delaware corporation, in connection with its registration, pursuant to a
registration statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement"), of 2,860,000
shares (the "Shares") of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Company,
issuable under the Company's Plans (as defined below). Of such Shares,
1,700,000 shares are issuable under the Company's 1994 Stock Incentive Plan (the
"1994 Plan"), 160,000 shares are issuable under the Company's Stock Option Plan
for Outside Directors (the "Outside Director Plan"), and 1,000,000 shares are
issuable under the Company's 1998 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the "1998
Plan" and, together with the 1994 Plan and the Outside Director Plan, the
"Plans"). This letter is furnished to you at your request to enable you to
fulfill the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K, 17 C.F.R.

For purposes of this opinion letter, we have examined copies of the
following documents:

accurate and in effect.
10. A certificate of an officer of the Company, dated the date

authenticity, accuracy and completeness of all documents submitted to us as
originals, and the conformity with the original documents of all documents
submitted to us as certified, telecopied, photostatic, or reproduced copies.
This opinion letter is given, and all statements herein are made, in the context
of the foregoing.
This opinion letter is based as to matters of law solely on Delaware
corporate law. We express no opinion herein as to any other laws, statutes,
regulations, or ordinances.
Based upon, subject to, and limited by the foregoing, we are of the
opinion that the Shares, when issued and delivered in the manner and on the
terms contemplated in the Registration Statement and the Plans (with the Company
having received the consideration therefor as specified in the Plans, the form
of which is in accordance with applicable law), will be validly issued, fully
paid and non-assessable under Delaware corporate law.
We assume no obligation to advise you of any changes in the foregoing
subsequent to the delivery of this opinion letter. This opinion letter has been
prepared solely for your use in connection with the filing of the Registration
Statement on or about the date of this opinion letter, and should not be quoted
in whole or in part or otherwise be referred to, nor be filed with or furnished
to any governmental agency or other person or entity, without the prior written

to the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit
that we are an "expert" within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended.
